Hot hatches... Which do you prefer? (Sub-Compacts)

[mitsiboy]

really hot yaris rides in europe!!dey have the LED taillights as stock na

[Herbie]

The 2008 Honda Jazz is really an exciting design for me. Kailan ba talaga lalabas ito dito?

[Herbie]

Na test drive ko ang Getz CRDi, gusto ko talaga, kasi diesel, magaan sa bulsa for everyday use. Ang price dito is 650k magkano ba ang Jazz dyan sa Metro Manila?

628k ang Getz CRDi dito sa Metro Manila. 650k ang Jazz 1.3S MT, pero this month 10k discount nila sa lahat ng Jaz models sa Honda Kalookan (Kung mayroon pang stock).

lupet ng porma ng mazda 2 ah...lalabas ba yan d2? I'm currently driving a mazda 3 hb

I would prefer to the Toyota Yaris. It has the balanced design. But for fuel efficient I will choos the Honda Jazz.

Actually, I think the manual 1.5 Yaris would be just as fuel efficient as the manual 1.5 Jazz... we've seen 20+ km/l from the Yaris 1.5 AT... though during my stint, it was down to 15 km/l...

Toyota Yaris for me, sadly I kinda hate the looks of the front bumper. I wish Toyota should have brought this one here instead:

I've always wanted a sub-comp, the Swift has always been a winner for me but I always get discouraged whenever I get in the driver's seat; I'm a bit tall (6'2") and my knees always hits something.

I have to push back ze seat all ze wey back to sit comfortably

I had a red one of this (2008 Yaris S) riding my tail yesterday in the 40mph zone. Just me minding my own business and then this guy decided to latch on to my (Sonata's) tail with his Yaris.

He wouldn't quit. So as soon I hit the freeway ramp, I punched it and left him far behind. If I knew the guy, I wouldn't mind if he tagged along...... But, his ugly mugshot didn't ring a bell.


Not a bad looking car at all. Looked like a red baby Camry (with sports option) including body effects and custom spoiler at the back.,

swift, parang budget version ng minicooper

[caloyski5]

love your own,

07 jazz na 1.3 CVT.

practical, fuel efficient, and well designed

[Type 100]

The Swift and GD-series Honda Jazz are my picks. Gwapong-gwapo yung Swift Sport 1.6, too bad we don't get it here.

The newer 2008 GE-series Jazz looks good stock, but when you put on the Mugen RS bodykit it looks bloblike. Parang squashed siopao.

Mas maganda pa lagyan ng bodykit ang GD Jazz. IMHO

Jazz for me 2007/2008.

However, if this become available, I'd go for CTR FN2.

Current European Honda Civics are are like the ones above. Check their website http://www.honda.co.uk/car/. Ibang-iba nag design. Aside from the safety features based on Euro NCAP, there are also space saving configurations na sa Civic ko lang nakita. From what I've heard and read, apparently, this is a European-designed product that is being exported back to Japan. The car above is currently being made in Swindon, Wales, UK. Check out the 5-door hatch. The rear door handles are conspicously designed to blend-in the contour of the rear window. Pag malayo, it looks like a 3-door hatch. Pati exhaust, hugis triangle. Daming design features that would help the everyday motorist -- hinde lang mga cosmetics.

As mentioned from previous post, this is a 5-door model. The rear door handle is positioned just to the left of the fuel cap, on the bottom right corner of the glass window. I really like the design.

[Type 100]

The FN-series UK/Euro Civics also have the Jazz's fancy folding seats in some modified form. They use similar floor retainer brackets.

Interestingly, the European FN2 Civic Type R hatch is sold in Singapore, while the Malaysians get the Japanese FD2 Civic Type R sedan.

GE Jazz is my pick overall. I am discounting cars not found in our country pero kung kasama sila I would have picked the Nissan Versa. Parang hindi na nga sub-compact yung Versa eh parang compact category na its very spacious inside...

By the way the thread says sub-compact so if you include compacts HAND DOWN EUROPEAN CIVIC. Gwapo sobra!

[KERSMcRae]

50/50 on tidus1203,

agree:
if the poll can be updated with models (+celerio & the upcoming i20) that are available in the country only. Besides, the TS is, I guess, within the country too.

disagree:
By the way the thread says sub-compact so if you include compacts HAND DOWN EUROPEAN CIVIC. Gwapo sobra!> sub-compact is not the same (level) as compact
:peace:

on Poll:
I choose Jazz in terms of overall design.
I pick the Yaris in terms of service.

[tidus1203]

Yeah but I did acknowledge that the thread is about sub-compacts if your read the sentence carefully. I am just so in love with the European Civic that is why I made a mention of it even though its a compact.
